Celebration Tree
Dedicate a leaf in memory
Show your love and support for The Prince of Wales Hospice by dedicating a leaf on our beautiful Celebration Tree — just like the Speight family did in memory of their sister, Anita.
This handcrafted iron tree stands proudly inside our Hospice in Pontefract and is filled with copper, silver and gold leaves plus a special golden acorn. Each leaf is a touching way to remember someone special or celebrate someone close to you.
The Celebration Tree honours the outstanding care we provide and the amazing support from our local community across Pontefract, and the wider Five Towns area. Your gift helps us care for local people when they need us most.
